This netconsole regression is still present in current mainline. Rafael, can you please add it to the list? It's strange that I can hit it on three separate machines with e100 and e1000 yet nobody else has reported it (afaik). Is nobody using netconsole?
Sorry, I don't read 100% of any mailing list. I use netconsole on my automated testing systems daily or at least as often as there is a linus (-git) or -mm release. It's still working for me, but I'm not using an e100[0] driver, I'm using a Broadcom.

i'd suggest the patch below, to mark it broken.
